Booked revenue for the full year has surpassed $70 million—$5 million higher than in April and ahead of last year by the same margin.\n\nAudioboom expanded its creator network with the addition of new tier one podcasts, including the latest Undisclosed series from Serial reporter Rabia Chaudry, and introduced adaptive advertising in partnership with Gumball FM. Showcase revenue rose 16% year-on-year, contributing to overall gross profit growth due to its higher-margin profile.\n\nAs of 30 June, cash stood at $2.5 million, with a further $2 million collected in early July and $3.4 million available via overdraft facilities.\n\n“A very positive second quarter reflects the continued improvements we have made across the business,” said CEO Stuart Last."}
